This pale ale beer was initially brewed for the first anniversary party of my daughter. Her first anniversary was August 22, 2010. The name is representative of the two of them. My daughter rides horses (Galloping) and my son-in-law played semi-pro football for the Green Bay Gladiators. The Fuggle hops comes from the backyard.
